I went to Ulmer's for an inspection/to identify the cause for some problems my car was having. In a show of commendable honesty, they identified two potential issues and, instead of choosing one arbitrarily or having me spend the money to address both, they told me that the issue was not yet serious enough to require repairs and to keep driving the car while looking for any further deterioration. In so doing, they seemed, to me, to earnestly want to address my problems without over charging me. If there's one thing I appreciated most, it was this honesty. I was also given quite thorough information during our conversations over the phone.I do have a couple of complaints, but none severe enough to lower my rating. The first is just that parking at the Salem location was very limited, despite me coming in quite early in the day. The second is and third relate to time. The inspection took a while, over a week, and I had to call a few times to ask for updates. This, I am told, was a phone issue on their end. They had actually called me a few times by the time of my final call, and they could not reach my phone for whatever reason.Overall, I would happily recommend this place. I would just recommend calling in for updates if necessary.

Very thorough and professional, but more importantly, very honest. Provided great feedback and service and saved me money where they could. They are busy and it may take a few days to get in but they are busy for a reason!

We had been going to another service company in town and we felt they weren’t being honest with us so we decided to try Ulmer’s because a friend of ours said they were trustworthy. Our service advisor was Wes Adams and he really took care of us. He was extremely professional and let us know that the “repair” the other place recommended at $2900 was not needed but we did need a couple of things we were told “only the dealership can do” by the other company. Ulmer’s completed these repairs same day. We called around to see what the cost would be elsewhere and discovered it was higher than Ulmer’s quoted. All together a great experience. I will be recommending Ulmer’s to all my friends and family. Thank you Wes Adams for a great experience.

This team was incredibly fast and upfront. I came to them pretty much out of nowhere and despite how busy they were, they agreed to take in my car due to the severity of the brake issue. A day later and I had my car again, feeling like new. Would definitely recommend them to anyone

My experience here wasthat this is good people,with all around excellent customer service and trustworthy follow through!Ulmers also provided a shuttle back to my house in a heat wave- super appreciated!They provided a thorough diagnoses and a very affordable fix of an oil leak that was scaring me - such a relief!Also gave us a thorough diagnoses in writing , of a bad AC unit that’s been through a costly replacement already with multiple compressors to boot- we will now be able to use this professional written assessment to get the job done right at the original point of repair-hopefully still under warranty)) thanks y’all! I will be back with our other cars! Grateful to find you!

TL;DR: Ulmer's went above and beyond to fix an issue caused by a cheaper mechanic.I'm from out of town (Mountain West) and was horrified to have all the lights and alarms go off in my car in the middle of Kentucky. It was Memorial Day weekend so NO ONE was open. I had my car towed to Ulmer's because it was close to were I was staying and I had no prior knowledge of the company.They were super busy but adapted and squeezed me in anyways for the next week. Turns out my brand new water pump had been improperly installed and shook loose, causing extra damage to my car. Ulmer's worked with my local mechanic directly to get the repairs paid for and handled in a super professional manner. Steve stayed late and came in early to get it all done. They communicated about timelines and kept me in the loop.If I am ever in town again, I will go out of my way to use Ulmer's if the need arises. They are that good.

I’m in the process of relocating to CO, and I took my vehicle for an inspection at Tire Discounters. After that inspection, my vehicle had issues, and I ended up at another Tire Discounter location, that I asked to also give my vehicle a once over prior to the trip. The two TD locations had varying opinions on what my vehicle may not/may need, I was referred to Ulmer’s, by a friend, for a 3rd opinion. Ulmer’s was GREAT! I explained the situation above and was put on the schedule in a timely manner for a bumper to bumper inspection (which includes an oil change!). After the inspection I was called with a list of services recommended and was talked through which were necessary for my big trip and which could wait (this included leaving some services off, that were not needed and could wait, which I appreciated due to keeping the price down and not being told EVERYTHING was required, just bc it was on the table). I got my vehicle back in a timely manner and it is running the smoothest it has in a LONG time! I recommended my boyfriend to Ulmer’s and he is taking his vehicle in as well, prior to the move West. GREAT service!!! HIGHLY recommend!!!

13:25 01 Mar 22

Always a great staff to deal with. Professional and customer focused. Thanks Wesley, Brandon and anyone else I may have forgotten. Great team! Check them out.

Ulmer's Auto Care did a great job with diagnosing the problem I was having with my car's brakes and tie rods. Everything was explained to me in detail. I appreciate their honesty about the repairs needed as well as other repairs that can wait. Good place to bring your car for repairs and maintenance.

Christopher LaMond

00:25 18 Feb 22

Fantastic service! Steve and his team did a great job diagnosing a tough issue with my Tundra. They quickly executed the repair and got me back on the road. Great client experience overall.

I was told by another shop that I had a fairly big (expensive) problem with my car, and that they wouldn’t fix it. They suggested I take it to the dealer. However, I saw many good reviews for Ulmer’s, so I decided to have them take a look. I spoke with Wesley from start to finish. They checked out my car and informed me that my issue was fairly straightforward. They were able to fix it within a few hours and were very reasonably priced. Additionally, when they called to tell me it was ready, they also informed me they had a shuttle service available. Cindy came and picked me up within 20 minutes and brought me to my car. Everyone was so friendly here. Looks like our family has found a new place to have our cars worked on, and I will recommend them to anyone that asks!

Douglas Kuhn

I had a turn signal bulb go out and due to time restraints, an injured hand and weather, I stopped in without an appointment to get it fixed.Awesome guys and extremely friendly. They took care of it within minutes. I have used these guys in the past with great results but was worried not having an appointment it would be a problem. They had no issue helping me. My vehicle is under warranty, but once warranty is up, no doubt I take it to this garage for repairs.

02:57 21 Nov 21

I cam in not knowing the cause of my cars problems. Ulmer's figured it out quickly and repaired it for the estimates price.No complaints. Straightforward, transparent, and professional. Would recommend

Steve Hart

01:34 15 Nov 21

Ulmer's is simply the best. I consider them premier care for my vehicles, and the people working there are some of the greatest customer service professionals you could meet. Honest, up-front about potential costs, and have even told me when I didn't need something done. I also love supporting local business, and they are a gem in the Anderson/Milford area.

Kevin Byrd

21:47 21 Oct 21

Best Mechanic Experience I've had in years.They just worked on both of our cars after a year of no driving and to be honest..mild neglect and both are running perfectly. Steve is great. I've never felt so informed at every step of the process. No surprises. Thank you so much.

Jennifer Blum

12:26 08 Oct 21

My dad recommended Ulmer’s to me after having several great experiences himself. Ulmer’s auto care was great about communicating about the repair and everyone I spoke to was professional. Wesley explained the issue, repair to fix it, cost break-down and expected timing on finishing. I would definitely recommend to a friend. And am now a loyal customer myself.

Ty Smith

12:24 30 Sep 21

This is hands down the best place to take your car in the Anderson/Mt Washington area. All the staff is super knowledgeable, helpful, and pleasant. They’re not pushy when it comes to repairs, but rather give you all the information on what’s going on with your car so you can make the decision. Would absolutely recommend to others.

Robert Lamb

18:08 19 Sep 21

My battery completely died. I needed an oil change and my brakes examined also. They came to my house, gave me a power jump to get me to the shop, courtesy ride home. Replaced the battery and kept the car overnight to complete a multi-point inspection and maintenance without a previous appointment. Told me my brakes were still good and to wait awhile to service them. Good price, and best customer service I have ever seen.

Jessica Wertz

15:17 12 Sep 21

Always a pleasure to deal with. Great quality and service. I am usually in contact with Wes and Steve, they are both wonderful along with the rest of the crew! Highly recommend.

John Sheil

15:43 03 Sep 21

I’m a lifelong Ulmer’s customer. These guys are always professional, always perform top quality work, and always give me an honest answer when I bug them with questions about my cars. I couldn’t live without their loaner car program, and even if they aren’t the cheapest in town, I won’t go anywhere else. I am always grateful for their help. Thanks guys!

Brad Moore

13:26 22 Jul 21

I don't usually take the time to leave reviews, but Ulmer's on Salem was awesome. Though they were very busy, they made sure to dedicate time in updating me of my car's status even when I was not asking. I respected their ability to address all the customers currently on location, while orchestrating cars, part orders and telephone calls. They were extremely professional and timely. This was my first time and I will be returning.

Randy J

18:16 16 Jul 21

Took my daughters car here for the Bumper to Bumper check. The check engine light was on....they diagnosed and fixed the car quickly. The service is absolutely top notch. From making the appointment, performing the repairs to picking up the car. Will be my go to place for auto care going forward. Highly recommend.

Heather

00:21 23 Jun 21

Lifelong Ulmer's customer for life for many reasons. Professional, extremely knowledgeable, honest and trustworthy, top notch quality repairs and service every single time. Customer service best I've ever seen. Ulmer's has been my family's first choice for over 15 years. I've taken it to other places for minor things maybe a handful of times and always end up back at Ulmer's. Worth every penny.

Deb Gruenemeier

18:08 10 Jun 21

First time to use Ulmer's Auto Care. They were able to accommodate me immediately, I had an appointment but I thought I would need a ride home and then later I would get my car. Fortunately lucky timing and they had me wait while they serviced my car right away. So first impression was a great experience. They were friendly and courteous, which is very important to me. I have been looking for a closer Auto Care Service, so they made a great first time experience for me.

Mary Ebert

19:45 18 Mar 21

I needed a 90,000 mile service on my 2008 Lexus ES350. This was my first visit to Ulmer’s Auto Care based on a friend’s recommendation. I was extremely happy with the service provided. It was easy to get an appointment, check-in was quick, I was contacted during the day about the work that was needed and the cost, and I received a very detailed bill describing all the work that was done. I was particularly impressed with Wesley Adams, the service advisor. He explained everything in detail to me before the work was done, and I felt reassured that the work he was suggesting was indeed necessary. I will definitely go back to Ulmer’s for future auto care on my vehicle.

Al DeLuca

12:36 11 Mar 21

If you are looking for a good mechanic that gives honest, personal and professional service, this is the place. They diagnosed the issue with my 2005 Honda right away, no guess work. Their hospitality service was excellent. They even drove me to an appointment and picked me up so my car could be repaired in a timely manner. Brian, Wesley and the team get 5 stars.

Zach Gambill

16:33 27 Feb 21

I was referred to Ulmer’s by a colleague of mine and I’m so glad that I was. I worked with Steve who was extremely personable and knowledgeable. He coordinated a time for my to drop off (within 24 hours) they were able to diagnose / repair the issue same day. I will be using Ulmer’s for all of my ongoing repairs and maintenance needs including some new tires before next winter. Thanks again to Steve and the rest of the team there. You guys were great!

Lindsey Fileccia

13:46 27 Feb 21

Ulmer’s is fantastic!! I brought my car here when I moved to the city because they were near my house—and I’ve been a loyal customer ever since. They go out of their way to be helpful and friendly. They know my name when I walk in the door. Even their own employees talk about how much they enjoy working there! Amazing business!

Brian Graham

19:22 18 Feb 21

Had my ‘09 Sienna in for bumper to bumper service for Winter driving assurance. Gave me a thorough report, we discussed what I wanted them to fix vs. what I’ll do on my own. They finished the work in a timely manner, good quality, and fair price. And I trust their inspection summary is generated with integrity.

Rosanne Thomas

13:29 13 Feb 21

Staff is knowledgeable, friendly, and very professional. You can expect good quality work that they stand behind, fair price, and honesty. Providing shuttle service, loaner car, etc., they demonstrate that they care about you, not just your car. I have recommended Ulmer's to friends for years.

Annie Stegeman

01:04 11 Feb 21

I am always very pleased with Ulmer's, but today they really went above and beyond! I went in with no notice, and with a car that barely made it into their lot. They were absolutely slammed, but were able to work my car in, and had it fixed by lunch. On top of making sure I wasn't stranded there! They always communicate what is happening, are upfront about cost, just downright honest people, and great mechanics. I couldn't reccomend Ulmer's enough!

dipa rijal

16:45 12 Jan 21

I don’t know to much about car so , I need someone I can trust for my car. Now I could trust them because they explain what they are doing and why. They have best customer service I ever experience. I really appreciate their work and thankful for it.

Jeremy Trudelle

13:30 12 Jan 21

I called Ulmer’s last week regarding smoke out the hood from a possible coolant leak. Even though I did not have an appointment until this week, they offered me to stop by and have my fluids topped off so the issue was not worse when I dropped the vehicle off on Monday. After dropping my vehicle off, they did a bumper to bumper and quickly diagnosed the issue I was having. They also identified a few other issues and gave a no pressure quote for me to consider. The work was completed the same day. Both upon arrival for vehicle drop off and vehicle pick up I did not need to identify myself as the awesome folks at Ulmer’s knew me and my vehicle. Awesome experience!! Highly recommend everyone take your vehicles to Ulmer’s.

Alexis Victor

19:52 18 Dec 20

Can't say it enough- Beechmont Ulmer's location is absolutely filled with THE best team. Super informative, so nice in explaining everything, even gave me advice about what to look for in new cars and letting me know I don't need to spend too much on what's wearing out since I'm looking to upgrade soon. I send everyone I know to them! Truly best in the business.

13:28 20 Nov 20

Always heard great things about Ulmers. Vehicle we bought for our son was always service there, including oil changes. We chose them on recommendations, and a friend works there also. You will get a concise explanation about what needs done and what it will cost, and they will call you and let you know if it will be more, because there is ALWAYS more, even when you do it yourself! Overheard them explaining why they had to do something on an older woman’s car, who had no idea what was going on, and it sold me right then and there how they handled it. You can rest assured going to this place for all your car care needs.

14:04 18 Nov 20

Ulmers has the best customer service I have ever had anywhere, not just at mechanics. They are honest and trustworthy. They never find "extra" things wrong with our vehicles. They are a little higher prices than other places, but worth it for the honesty and customer service!

Chris Hesler

14:01 01 Nov 20

This was the first time I've used Ulmer's for auto service. The staff were great, professional, and explained everything to make sure I understood what was needed and why. I used the car pickup service which was great. I will be using Ulmer's from this point forward for both my cars.

Chad Martin

13:57 30 Oct 20

Ulmer's Auto Shop always provides outstanding service at a very fair price. Their entire team is professional and knowledgeable. I also appreciate the shuttle service!

Sally Beauchamp

12:41 24 Oct 20

Wesley and the guys were always personable and more than helpful with questions I had or issues I was concerned with. They did their famous Bumper to Bumper maintenance package and also replaced my right front axel on my ‘98 Toyota! I’ve used them before and shall use them again. Can’t go wrong!

Tyler J

14:34 09 Oct 20

Always amazing service. Wes even checks up after service to make sure everything is still working properly. They’re honest, quick, great communicators, I don’t know why people would go anywhere else. As long as I live in Cincinnati I will take my vehicle here and tell others they should do the same.

Steven Davis

22:52 24 Sep 20

Read reviews from others and gave them a try. I was not dissappointed!! The service was amazing. They scheduled a visit after talking on the phone. And fixed my truck in a single day after doing an extensive diagnostic review of my truck. I will definitly be going back and will recommend them to everyone.

13:34 15 Sep 20

TL;DRIf you're looking for a new mechanic or a second opinion go to Ulmer's Auto Care and speak with Steve or Wesley or anyone and you'll feel like they genuinely care about your well-being and getting you back in your vehicle and feeling safe and happy that you made a new connection. You will feel like family.Ulmer's has the best, most honest mechanics and customer service personnel you will find in the area! I moved to the Anderson area aver two years ago and I have a 2012 VW Passat and needed a mechanic, but I was worried about finding an honest, reasonable one. Enter Ulmer's Auto Care.Steve and Wesley are top notch customer service folks with a great wealth of knowledge when it comes to all things automotive. They are the most friendly, helpful, honest people I have ever dealt with in the automotive industry. They know the true value of an open and honest relationship with their customers. They are always happy to answer any questions and they understand that some repairs are pricey and always contact you with what they've found before they do anything outside of the scope of your visit.If you're in need of a new mechanic or you want a second opinion turn to Ulmer's and tell them thanks for me, I don't know that they hear that enough.

Casey Sandmann

23:49 14 Sep 20

We’ve been using Ulmer’s for several years now. Always great customer service, timely, and they do great work. Very reliable. Highly recommend!

Paul Mulready

01:01 03 Sep 20

I will say what I said to Steve and Wesley. I completely trust them. They are honest, fair, do excellent work and I drive quite a distance to have them work on my car because of all that. They are the Best!!!

Lynda Montgomery

13:37 02 Sep 20

Ulmer's is the best! Friendly, knowledgeable and honest. They work with you to do the best for your car and your safety. We've been customers since 1980.

Peace Maker

22:01 26 Aug 20

One on one customer service, all mechanics do their best to save you money, and the best part is that they would give you a ride for free upon request.

Charity Whitaker

13:22 14 Aug 20

My alternator was failing and I called Ulmer’s since they were local and I had seen some positive recommendations for them. They got my car fixed the next day and checked everything else so I got back on the road quickly. Thanks Ulmer’s!

Barrett Corey

16:01 09 Aug 20

I cant say enough about this place, it is so great. Extremely honest, professional, knowledgeable, and friendly. This is the only place I will ever go for auto repairs and have been several times with several vehicles. Their staff is top notch. Just one example: Once my girlfriend took her car somewhere else, where they quoted her hundreds of dollars to fix a weird noise. We took it to Ulmers and they identified the issue and it turned out to be small/nothing.

Jessica Vennemeyer

23:04 07 Aug 20

These guys were amazing, we had such a great experience with them. Replaced a/c compressor, got the warranty company to pay for the full amount of a brand new compressor, and had it done in time for us to leave for our vacation. These guys were seriously fantastic and I will going to them anytime we need to have something fixed.

Annie Warner

12:15 25 Jul 20

The team at Ulmer’s is courteous, honest and helpful. I have had several repairs and service appointments with them over the years and have always been pleased with their timeliness, communication and work product. Great business in Anderson Township!

22:29 21 Jul 20

A couple of weeks ago, my wife and I were driving west on I-74 just past the Indiana state line, returning to our Illinois home after visiting family in Anderson Township, when one of the tires on our 2019 Honda CR-V went flat due to a nail. Since the vehicle is relatively new, an exact replacement tire was difficult to find, but Steve was able to locate the exact Bridgestone replacement from an out-of-town dealer and have it shipped to Ulmer’s in only one day. Steve and Wesley had the spare off, the new tire on, and the rest of the tires on the CR-V examined for safety in about 10 minutes, and we were back on the road. Many, many thanks to Steve, Wesley, and the entire crew at Ulmer’s for an excellent experience.

Dottie Machock

14:53 21 Jul 20

The best compliment I can give is that they are trustworthy. They are also helpful in making things convenient with scheduling and giving customers rides while their cars are being serviced. They are the best.

Rachel V

16:44 16 Jul 20

They scheduled one week in advance, told me pricing up front(when possible), they were upfront and professional. Had Jeep Parts on site, cost was about what I expected, and it was completed in two days. I was either lucky or they were very prepared. Unlike with jeep I know they checked everything I asked them too.

Kathy Henley

00:05 28 Jun 20

I absolutely will never take my car anywhere else for service but Ulmers. Steve and Wesley could not be more professional or customer oriented. All of their staff are trained thoroughly and are all very professional. They get a 5-star rating from me.

Liz Phillips

17:54 20 Jun 20

The team at Ulmers are always courteous. This time was no different. The helped diagnose the issue with my car and helped do some research about a potential warranty which index up saving me a lot! Thank you Wesley! Even though I’ve moved and the shop is not as close to me anymore, I’ll definitely be back.

Matt Breig

14:54 09 Jun 20

Everyone at Ulmer’s Anderson shop went out of their way to make sure that my concerns about the jeep were heard, diagnosed, and fixed in a timely manner. They went the extra mile to make sure that everything was correct before making my Jeep available. 1st time to have ever used their services and will be returning for all my mechanic needs in the future. Simply awesome!

Michelle Friszman

22:38 04 Jun 20

Ulmers auto care is the best around the city. We originally started servicing our cars there because of how close it was to our house, but I can’t imagine trusting anyone else with our family vehicles. They’re trustworthy and professional, but also very personable on every account. As a female, I know they’re not ripping me off if I’m the one to speak to the staff when they suggest a repair that we weren’t expecting. I always know they’re going to be honest with recommendations for repairs- ex: ones that can wait, or ones that are more time sensitive. They’re extremely helpful and have even picked up our car from our home to have it serviced or oil changes, and then dropped it off when finished. You have to trust the people doing repairs to cars you’re driving every day and family vehicles- there’s no doubt that they’re the people to trust! Highly recommend to anyone!

Richard Mulvaney

18:13 30 May 20

Ulmer’s Auto Carr runs professional care car service business. Our families experience with this organization has always been phenomenal. They go out of there way to ensure they provide the immediate care your vehicle needs. The staff is very friendly and strives to provide a family atmosphere.

Gary Loomans

21:52 27 May 20

Had an excellent experience. Very friendly and professional. I was given a loner car as the work required took more than a day. The staff helped me understand the problem and the solution. Will be recommending to my friends.

Kris Durstock

02:41 22 May 20

Best service and care for our vehicles. Professional, helpful, and fair. All you can ask for. Will be a loyal customer and I am happy to refer them on to others.

The folks at Ulmer’s are so kind and accommodating. There was never any pressure to buy services I didn’t need. Straight up front and fair pricing. Wesley was amazing keeping me informed. Thanks for the quality service.

01:06 20 Mar 20

Have brought my old 2001 Isuzu Rodeo in 3 separate times for various issues over the last few years. It's paid off, and likely only has a few years of life left before something major breaks and is not worth the cost to fix. They understood my situation, gave me some great advice, and worked with me through some minor repairs. The car is still running, and I feel great about the decisions made along the way. Highly recommend.

Julio Mejia

19:29 18 Mar 20

Ulmer's Auto Care is a professional automotive service shop that provides quality repairs and good value, compare to dealers. They are punctual and can be trusted to have ready your car when promised. They are not the least expensive however one can trusted them to deliver good and satisfactory work.

Betty Finzer

20:13 16 Mar 20

I feel that you can trust Ulmer's in their evaluation of our car and van. They always try to have work done in a reasonable time and keep you informed what needs to be done and how much it will cost. I've always found them to be honest and fair,

Andrew Obrien

23:52 11 Feb 20

It's great to have an auto shop that focuses on taking care of the customer and the long term relationship. Very happy with the expert advice and quality of work. Great ethics and integrity. Couldn't go to another shop after going here.

Amy

19:27 06 Feb 20

As always, the service at Ulmer’s was superb! Bryan, Steve, and Wesley take care of my cars and I trust them to be honest and give me fair prices. They make sure my cars are safe to drive and up-to-date on services. I wouldn’t go anywhere else.

scott taylor

22:56 31 Jan 20

I had an extremely pleasant experience here. I found the services performed to be better warrantied yet comparably priced to other local shops. Steve was extremely transparent and up front with itemized estimates, and nothing was done without consulting me. I never felt upsold or uninformed, and the free loaner vehicle allowed me to avoid missing any work. Highly recommended - I plan to be a repeat customer!

Vicki Newsom

00:24 29 Jan 20

Bryan, Steve, Wes, and the entire team at Ulmer's are, and have always been, amazing to work with!!! I have been taking my car to them for the last 10+ years, and have never had a bad experience. I always find them to be extremely helpful, accommodating, and very trustworthy. They have helped me out on numerous occasions, and I am so very thankful they are there!!!

Mike Norvell

17:26 24 Jan 20

I've been using Ulmer's for all our cars for several years now and couldn't be happier. Unlike many garages, they conduct their business as professionals. You can count on prompt communications and thorough explanations. I've never felt nickle and dimed over small issues.

Keshawna Daly

23:41 07 Jan 20

Absolutely love this place not only did I get a bumper to bumper check at a nice price they had a shuttle bus to take me home so I wouldn’t have to wait there and the shuttle came and picked me up from my house to get my car when it was ready!!!!

Wesley, Stephen & Brian have taken care of my cars forever. I trust their judgement completely when it comes to keeping my cars running smoothly, over the years. I recommend Ulmer’s often to friends and will continue to do so. Won’t go anywhere else!

Always great service! Wesley and Steve provide excellent customer service with communication throughout the process. I have been taking my cars to Ulmer’s for years and fully trust their expert team.

Ulmers has been taking care of is for 20 years and never let is down. We always feel safe and comfortable with them. Highly recommend.

I had an electric issue with my ‘98 Jeep Cherokee. It had been to 3 other places to try and solve the problem...without any success. Ulmer’s was the place that solved it! Wesley kept me informed about progress and was very conscious about expense. I would recommend them highly for any auto repair. Thanks Ulmer’s!

Took a Lexus RX330 in with an engine noise that sounded similar to an old engine with mechanical lifters that needed adjustment; but new that wasn't applicable to this model. Ulmer's quickly diagnosed the problem as a bad water pump. They replaced it and the idler pulley, tensioner and timing belt and we had the car back the next day, sounding like it did originally. Cost seemed a bit high but service and repair were great.

I must admit, I have always been a dealer guy, I have had a great relationship with our dealer for 26 years . My son’s car is a different make than our other cars, and is older. I no longer will patronize Toyota, so I took the car to Ulmer’s, well it was a great decision. Shout out to Wesley, great customer service, very knowledgeable and takes the time to explain things. They were able to take care of my son’s car in a very timely manner at a fair price. I will be taking it there for everything in the future.

Another wonderful service experience with Ulmer’s, per usual. Honest, friendly and knowledgeable. Employees seem happy which is always a good sign.

Ulmer’s Auto Care is all about excellence - customer service, mechanical work and fair prices. They are very dependable, and everyone there is pleasant and courteous. A trusted resource for sure.

Super friendly. They treat you right. First time dealing with them, 5 stars. Was referred by a friend and I’m glad I did. Looks like they take care of their peeps, which means their peeps are more likely to take care of their customers.

So glad to be able to have a car repair shop that I can trust! The staff at Ulmer's does such a great job. Always honest and trustworthy.

Justin Allen

Great first experience and will be returning to Ulmer's. It is hard to find an honest and reliable auto care facility and Ulmer's is exactly that. Their service is top notch as well.

PromptAnd honest service. The courtesy shuttle is an added bonus! I’ll definitely be using them for all future needs.

Amy Wagner

12:26 11 Sep 19

I had a great first time experience with Ulmer's and I plan on going back for any future auto needs. Very friendly, knowledgeable, and I did not feel pressured to make a big purchase for a small repair(like you feel at some other auto shops or car dealerships) ! Thanks so much for taking care of my car guys!!

Jeremy Hensley

15:51 17 Aug 19

Bryan and Wes helped with a nail in my tire. I called on short notice, they got me in quickly! My tires are a pain to remove because I have bead lock wheels, they did not complain, they just took care of it quickly and efficiently! When they called to let me know my Jeep was ready for pick up, they sent a shuttle driver to pick me up within 15 min. Every person that I have come in contact with from Ulmer’s so far have been first class!! They all seam genuinely interested in giving customers the best service possible! What a great family run business!!

Julie and Carl Edmondson

13:42 16 Aug 19

When warning lights appeared on our dash, Wesley Adams took the time to do a quick review and assured us the vehicle was safe to drive for a couple days until we could get a repair appointment. That gave us peace of mind. A couple days later, Andrew Chalfant made the repairs and our car runs great now, with no warning lights. We are very happy with the service provided by Ulmer's.

Kelley Surette

15:47 14 Aug 19

The guys at Ulmer's do great work. They explain everything going on with your car with great detail, but in a way that is easy to understand and follow. I've always had a very fast turn-around; most work I've had done was finished within a single day, except for once when they needed to order a part in. But even then I think it only took an extra day or two. Plus they've got courtesy vehicles if you need a rental in the meantime. Would definitely recommend!

Jacob Breving

20:42 04 Aug 19

I have had intermittent AC issues for a little over a year. The AC finally went out and I decided to take it to Pep Boys to have it inspected. I paid $50 for an inspection for them to tell me the compressor was not getting electricity and that it needed to be replaced. They said it would be $1,000 plus taxes to get a new one and swap it out. Decide to get a second opinion from Ulmer's and they were able to determine that a cap connecting the electrical circuits was loose and just needed to be tightened. They fixed that, and filled my coolant as it was running low as well. Labor + the coolant was only $200 including taxes.

Kathy Dixon

19:14 29 Jul 19

I really appreciate how quickly I can schedule my appointments and how very professional and courteous all the employees are. I have told everyone I know to take their vehicles to Ulmer’s!

Cheryl Kraeutler

Great service. Everyone is helpful and explains the service. I wouldn’t go anywhere else.

Nancy Shaffer

01:57 02 Jul 19

I'm back in the area for the first time in years...and when my car broke down I knew I needed to get to Ulmer's. They were amazing and explained what I needed. Thank you guys all so much. Best customer care I've experienced in a long time.

Stephen L

20:38 30 Jun 19

Very trustworthy people. Could have charged a lot more on my repairs but held it to the originally quoted price. Also gave me a ride home and a rental car when the repairs took longer than expected. 5 stars

Charles Wetzel

18:29 20 Jun 19

I just had my brake pads and rotors replaced at Ulmer's and I am very pleased with the service. An overall inspection was done as well. I have an older Toyota, which is well out of any manufacturer warranty and I will be taking my vehicle here for routine maintenance in the future. Steve was extremely thorough, courteous and professional. I really appreciate the courtesy shuttle service as well. Thanks Ulmer's for a job well done!

Amelia York

17:32 07 Jun 19

As a woman, I've had so many mechanics talk down to me and that is the exact opposite of my experience at Ulmer's. They're honest, affordable and I really can't say enough good things about the customer service (especially Wesley!). I won't any other mechanic in Cincinnati.

Mildred Stegman

23:57 01 Jun 19

This is the best place that you can take your car for honest repairs. They are pleasent and efficient and do the work on time. Thanks Ulmer's

Caleb Hayward

23:42 12 Mar 19

These guys are excellent. After countless attempts to fix an issue with my Honda using the dealer, I gave Ulmer's a try. They were able to fix my car and charged me the initial quote even though more issues were discovered; plus they are extremely polite and helpful. In my opinion, this is what going to the mechanic should be like. I would recommend them to anyone and will be using them for all of my car maintenance in the future.

Erica Fries

14:14 05 Mar 19

Bryan and his Team at Ulmers Auto Care Center were excellent in helping me. They scheduled my appointment at my convenience, loaned me a car while they had mine, inspected my vehicle AND completed what I needed done in the hours I was at work that day. Their explanation of work done, customer service and respect was above and beyond. They also took the time to listen to me and what I had to say. I appreciate that greatly and I highly recommend them.

Sara Kindle

12:35 03 Mar 19

Ulmer's cares about making sure the job is done right. My repair ended up being less expensive than they had originally quoted me. They will take a brief look at your car and give you a cost estimate for free before you even schedule an appointment. Ulmer's also has a complimentary shuttle that they will use to give you a ride to and from your place of employment while they are fixing your car. They also did not try to tell me a list of other repairs my car "needed", which was a nice change from some auto places I have been to in the past. I would definitely recommend this business to others.

Dave Jackson

14:34 22 Feb 19

These guys know how to do car service right! They quickly diagnose the problem(s), give you the straight scoop on what's wrong, and if you authorize repairs they fix it quickly. All of this is done in an efficient and professional manner. We have had our vehicle repairs done at Ulmer's for years, and I would recommend them to anyone looking for a good, reliable mechanic who is customer friendly.

misty brown

02:20 16 Feb 19

These people are great, their honest and up front. Semi expensive depending on what's wrong, however they dont rip you off and you'll get good work guaranteed. It's hard to find good customer service anywhere nowadays, but these men are very friendly and personable.

Pops Murphy

01:49 29 Jan 19

Recently had some work done at Ulmer's. Switched because my "dealer" ...never mind. Wife loves them, so I went. Very nice. On time. Do it right, easy to deal with, prices are reasonable. If you need car work, give them a call. You will love it too.

rachel talley

23:59 18 Dec 18

This shop treats me like family. They always go above and beyond. They have repeatedly gone out of their way to help me when I am in a bind, they did not fix things that are not broken, and they tell me when it is just not worth fixing. As a female, I really appreciate an auto shop where I can actually trust someone to look at my car and give me an honest repair quote. I would recommend this place to anyone. #Customerforlife

Gerald Oaks

We have used Ulmer's Auto for many years -- back to when they only had one shop on Salem Rd. They are honest, efficient, effective, knowledgeable and friendly. Brian does take after his father which is very positive and therefore is a very good manager. His staff is first class which it has been for many, many years.

Ellie Wilke

14:58 07 Dec 18

Ulmer's saved me again! I can always count on them to be polite, listen to me and fix the problem. They are so professional and knowledgeable. I always feel secure and safe in my car after they have fixed it. Thanks so much Bryan, Steve and all the rest of the staff.

Excellent service and the most honest repair shop in the city. You’ll always get the real answer on what’s needed now, what can wait snd what to think about in the future, with regards to maintenance and repairs. Cannot recommend more highly!

Kristin Bally

Always trustworthy and reliable. Very polite too! Highly recommend for any of your car’s needs.

Randy Martinez

Very fair and reliable. Always willing to talk through issues with you, so you don’t pay more than needed. Quick turnaround on repairs. And you won’t get better customer service anywhere. I found their shop a few years ago when I moved to the city and couldn’t be happier.

Mike Sullivan

Ulmer’s provides outstanding service. They are responsive, thorough in their explanation of the issues and willing to provide alternative solutions when available.

Steve was very respectful and appreciative. He explained everything and asked if I had any questions. My car was repaired the same day and was reasonably priced.

Randy Wilson

12:39 04 Oct 18

First time ever going to them. I drive by their shop all the time but never really thought of them. Had a timing chain go bad on my car. I decided to stop in and talk to them about possibly repairing the car. They gave us a few options on the best way to fix our car which one of them would have been the most expensive but they suggested engine replacement which ended up being cheaper. Plus they are adding a warranty vs no guarantee to just replacing the timing chain. Everyone was very professional. They called frequently to update me on the work. Will continue to use them from now on.

Laura Balside

23:23 02 Oct 18

Service is always excellent! No surprises here. The extra benefit is you can drop your car off and they’ll take you home and pick you up when it’s ready. The staff is very polite, friendly, and always helpful with any questions you have!

w Genter

15:59 26 Sep 18

They did a thorough check of my car, not just the alignment I took it in for. They also checked my ignition switch at no charge and agreed I probably should have a new key made. Everyone was courteous and explained exactly what they did. Love the shuttle service home and back when my car was ready.

VernP Anderson

As usual they took great care of our Lexus and made the car road ready for our next trip to Florida. Price, convenience and car. What more can you ask for. Vern

Andrew Laurence

Highly recommend everyone take their cars to Ulmer's. They always go the extra mile to make sure your car is taken care of and so are you. Everyone that works there is professional and courteous. Always willing to go above and beyond to make sure you have a five star experience. If you want your car to run forever, Ulmer's is the place to go.

Anthony Zaya

00:30 11 Sep 18

Honesty, Integrity and Value are three things I believe everyone looks for in Auto repair. There is no better company than Ulmer’s to give you their best on all of these. Thanks for keeping me and my family safe while on the road.

I blew the heater control valve on my way home from work on my birthday. The truck wasn't the only thing steaming! Dropped it off at Ulmer's expecting to hear from them sometime the next day. Less than 2 hours and they called to let me know it was ready! Brian and Jason, you guys are awesome! Thank you so much.

Michael Horn

We send a big THANK YOU to Brian, Steve, Wesley, Fred, and to those whose names we don’t know. We were so impressed with the attention given our Toyota last Monday and we greatly appreciate it. That’s another reason why we tell people that our vehicles have been given excellent care during the last 20 or so years at Ulmer’s. You are tops in our opinion.?Marv Collins and Dean Colville

I just wanted to give a huge “Thank You” to all of the staff at Ulmer’s Auto Care. My family and I were stopping by our hometown while on our way to our new home in Las Vegas when one of our cars suddenly got a massive oil leak Friday morning. I took it to Ulmers and explained to them that I’m driving the car to Las Vegas on Monday morning. They were already very busy but Wes and Bryan still figured out a way to diagnose the problem quickly and then get the part, install it, clean up the engine for me and get the car back to me on the very same day. Unbelievable customer service! Thank you Gentlemen!

Dale Marie Goldman

10:13 20 Jul 18

Was honest and upfront about repair. Completed repair in a timely manner and explained what was done. Would highly recommend.

Ulmer's is one of the very few Auto care businesses I've done business with that conducts itself with integrity and stands behind the services it provides. I've been a customer of theirs for over 20 years and they consistently outshine the competition because they value their customers and stand behind their work. I recommend you give them a chance to prove it to you by scheduling your next service appointment today.

Shad Sletto

14:44 15 Jul 18

The folks at Ulmer's focus on fixing the problem. We have a variety of cars they service and they are always reliable and cost-conscious. I highly recommend them.

Anastasia Mileham

10:12 11 Jul 18

These guys are simply the best. They care about their work, they care about their customers, and they are extremely knowledgeable and up to date on everything happening in the auto industry. I go to Ulmer’s for everything from an oil change to a new transmission.

Nancy Manassah

01:24 11 Jul 18

We had our oil changed a couple of weeks ago and they went over the entire car. I ask them to check the wipers and they changed them as well. They went over their check list as well which is standard procedure. You always leave feeling that your car is in excellent condition. If something is wrong, they will find it. We have been going to them since we moved to Anderson in 2002 and would not go to anyone else. They are the best.

Kevin K

I felt comfortable discussing issues with my car, and they listened. It's nice to do business with kind people. They came to pick my husband up to go get the car since we were down to one car with a baby. Customer service is top notch. Highly recommend.

Marlo Sawka Parlin

20:06 09 Feb 18

So, I and sending out a huge thank you to Bryan from Ulmer's Auto Care. Not only are they the best mechanics in Cincinnati they also provide the best customer service ever. Our family has been going to them for decades. Today I found myself out of gas a few miles from their garage in Anderson (while at a gas station, long story). I called Ulmer's to see if they could help me out in a pinch. They said, "We'll be right there!" What more can I say, they care about their customers like they are family. Thank you, Bryan!

Jim Simminger

20:59 07 Feb 18

Wow! I just had a great experience with Ulmers today. I took my CRV in for breaks; they diagnosed the problems and concluded that although new breaks and rotors would fix the problem and would be needed this year, that it was not absolutely necessary right now. Since it’s a bit of a pricey job, I’ll go back in a couple of months and have it done. But, I was impressed with the customer service and explanation Steve gave to me as he presented their findings.

Alexis Swisher

19:13 04 Jan 18

I’ve been coming to Ulmer’s for years now and recently moved to Columbus. I still drive my car down to Cincinnati to get my car serviced because I love how they treat me like family. Bryan and crew are the best!

Alex Martishius

18:26 04 Dec 17

These guys are awesome. They know me and my family personally, and they are always friendly. They are honest and fair, they don't try to push services on you that you don't need. You will pay a bit more here for routine maintenance vs. the cheap places, but you get what you pay for. It's a great value for the price.

Susan Stefan

19:12 07 Jun 17

Our family has used Ulmer's in Anderson for years. We drive used cars. Brian, Steve, and the rest of the team, past and present, have always been knowledgeable, professional, efficient, and friendly. Everyone there is very customer-service oriented. I never have concerns about the quality of the service or parts. To us, they are a highly valued member of our community. We are fortunate to have them!
